Fresh water is one of the world’s most crucial resources. We ensure we conserve as much of this as possible through our comprehensive approach, anchored in optimising our water efficiency, reuse and recycling.
Water Efficient Technologies
From installing low-flow fixtures to enhancing operational efficiency, we ensure our water footprint is kept to a minimum.
Drop by Drop Project
We support local organisations that work to increase water resiliency and reinvigorate ecosystems.
Recognised as one of Singapore’s leading water-efficient buildings, Marina Bay Sands is designed with over 400 different types of water-efficient fixtures, replicated in the thousands across resort.
From striking architectural features that collect rainwater to water-sensitive landscaping measures, highly efficient dishwashers and kitchen equipment, no effort is spared in improving our procedures and minimising water consumption.
Since 2016, Marina Bay Sands collects and recycles water from 3,000 air-conditioning units across the three hotel towers. This has enabled us to save an average of 77,000 litres of water per day, as the recycled water is used for landscaping at the hotel lobby. In 2024, we extended this highly successfully project to collect and reuse the water from the air-conditioning units at the casino.
A collaboration between Las Vegas Sands and the WASH Foundation, The Drop by Drop project reinvests capital from Sands’ water stewardship savings into innovative projects by local water champions. Funded projects aim to increase local water resiliency, reinvigorate ecosystems, incubate new water solutions and engage the community.
Since the project’s inception in 2020, Marina Bay Sands has been proud to support several innovations, including the development of a plastic recovery system with Seven Clean Seas, the launch of a five-part virtual learning series and the ‘10 for Zero’ Awards with Conservation International (CI) Singapore. The resort has also supported local non-profit organisation, the Waterways Watch Society in organising a series of waterway clean-ups for over 4,000 primary and secondary school students nation-wide.
